The COST project has been studying if there is any difference in biodiversity found at organic and conventional farms. Some of our colleagues at the CEC have spent summer doing fieldwork studying bumblebees. Romain Carrié and others from the COST project have collected pollen from bumblebees and surveyed flower resources at 19 different farms in Skåne.– From earlier fieldwork, we know there is a d

On October 31st, representatives from across the globe will gather in Glasgow for two weeks to attend the UN climate change conference COP26. Expectations are high following last year's cancelled conference, and the IPCC report released in August. What can we expect from the meeting? Five Lund researchers give answers. How far do countries' climate ambitions go? As part of the Paris Agreement in 2

Since 24 February, nothing has been the same for Ukrainian researchers. In this urgent situation, MultiPark has offered some of them a sanctuary. They are eager to share their thoughts about how we may all contribute to this period to be as constructive as possible, despite the threatening circumstances. It is impossible not to be touched by the horrible situation for the Ukrainian people. As a re

As a PhD student in the MaCoBios project, Fabiola Espinoza Córdova aims to explore how we can reframe adaptation to climate change in coastal communities towards more sustainable and just pathways. She believes that impacts on marine and coastal ecosystems linked to climate change are not only driven by global warming and human pressures, but are directly embedded in social changes.

Many of us have worked more remotely during the pandemic than we ever dreamed of doing. Informatics researcher Saonee Sarker has been studying IT-enabled collaboration and its impact on work-life balance for many years, but mainly with a focus on the IT sector. Today, she sees how that industry's digital settings has moved to encompass us all. The bookshelves in Saonee Sarker's office at the Schoo

As a young journalist, Tomas Sniegon had fantastic material – more than one hundred hours of interviews with the former KGB chairman Vladimir Semichastny. It was intended for a memoir, but time moved on and the market was suddenly saturated with Soviet confessions. Twenty years later, the winds have changed. There is renewed interest in looking back to understand both Russia and President Putin, w

A sun drenched day in the allies of Västra Hamnen. A whirlwind of black and white tails, snouts and barks are on duty at the townhouse door. Dog dad, Professor of Immunology Tomas Leanderson, hushes, admonishes, welcomes into the kitchen table and coffee. In a few days, this rare specimen of the old kind of professor at the Faculty of Medicine will be a free man, after a life-long love affair with

Scientists have long suspected that changes in the body’s metabolism affect the development of the incurable and fatal neurological disease ALS. Now, for the very first time, a group of researchers in Lund and Australia have identified changes in the disease in ALS patients in the brain cells that produce substances that regulate specifically metabolism and sleep. These findings provide increased

How can aquathermal energy systems support a sustainable energy transition in the European Union? This will be explored in a new EU Interreg North Sea Region project, WaterWarmth, which seeks to raise awareness about the possibilities of sustainable heating and cooling solutions based on aquathermal energy and integrate them into existing renewable energy systems across the North Sea region.

Researchers have created a digital audio platform that can modify the emotional tone of people’s voices while they are talking, to make them sound happier, sadder or more fearful. New results show that while listening to their altered voices, participants’ emotional state change in accordance with the new emotion. “Very little is known about the mechanisms behind the production of vocal emotion”,

A common cause of myocardial infarction and stroke is the rupture of atherosclerotic plaques. The exact location of plaque ruptures has previously been unknown, but now researchers at Lund University have mapped this. The research team has also identified an enzyme, a marker, that they hope will help predict who is at risk of having a myocardial infarction or a stroke due to a ruptured atheroscler

In a recent study, researchers from Lund Stem Cell Center uncover developmental differences in the molecular machinery of the cells that maintain the blood system. These findings provide new insights into how the blood system develops throughout life and identify mechanisms that, if disrupted, may lead to malignancies. The study is published in Cell Reports. The body makes several million blood ce
